I don't want to see anyone else butting heads with Hicks please.

For the price of a everyday dinner for two at most rest. I can put this next to my TV and watch it spin all game and get a few laughs as the Bears kick some ass this year. More than happy to let them "Just take my money".

Got from HSN. Sadly they are out of Bears but you can get from amazon at a higher price. It was a special order that day for 70 bucks

Oh and it rotates.

So I was home the other day and was channel surfing and found this. Could not help myself. Just an grumpy old fart with a Childs mind.

I can understand the concept and the fact that it's a one on one drill. Perhaps you just do what the drill is. But it just seems like he's slowing down turning inside back into the defender allowing him time to catchup

Why would you turn all the way inside into the defender when you already have him beat to the outside? It seems like you're allowing the defender time to catch up? It seems like a weird to design a play. Maybe that's why I'm a mailman.

Has anyone read or heard how the offense line is doing so far in camp?

https://touchdownwire.usatoday.com/2019/06/19/the-nfls-11-best-offensive-tackles/ So the Bears did not make a top eleven tackle. But they had a player in every other list and in some two. Just amazing how good this defense is. I am looking forward to seeing how they will play with Pagano. And I don't for a minute think they are going backwards just because they lost Fangio. When Ryan left they were just as good and in many areas even better.

Yea in football teams more times than not a team will win over most indefiual players. But there is no denying that it was Mr. Manning that made the plays during both playoff runs and his play in each Super Bowl that are the reasons they won.

Big man having fun. One of the reasons he is one of my favorites.

"KC only led in sacks for one reason and that was because teams were so far behind they had to pass starting in the 2nd quarter" What he said. I have never had faith in Andy Reid teams for the same reason I never had faith in Lovie Smith teams. They excelled in one area only. Mahomes is a rare talent but you still need a balanced team to win it all.

He's the whipped cream on top of the Sunday, pun intended, that Pace and company have created. Now it's time to but the cherry "Mitch" on top and let us all enjoy

“We have a great relationship,” Trubisky said. “It all started last year, and it’s just going to keep growing better and better. It’s just that player-coach relationship, that constant communication and just me doing whatever he wants and envisions and translating that right to the field. "me doing whatever he wants". Can't see McMahon ever saying anything like that about Ditka. Different time but same place.

My purpose was just to say how much I enjoyed watching Mr. Hicks not only on the field but how he carriers himself and this team. It' all good!

For complete disclosure it's "a laser signature not a real autograph". Did not catch that on the back. They must have a bunch for most players to send out to acknowledge your email etc.

So I sent a simple email to the Mr. Hicks care of the Bears a few weeks ago, just telling him that he has become one of my favorite players in the past 60 years. I enjoy watching him and his interviews and told them I thought he seem like just a big guy having fun. In the mail today was an autographed photo. For an old fart it made me feel like a kid and made my day.

Just put a hernia truss on. They are almost useless. Kinda like the old school jock straps

"Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth". I hope Mitch bounces up and punches back harder.

Yea, he's more like the hoodie

Not sure yet but I would not mind a little more crazyness. Not Buddy Ryan type. I do know that Pagano is a lot more dapper in a suit than Vic.

Could be BS. But the human body is not a machine. Things happen that sometimes don't make sense and screw everything up. It's not always just cut and dry. Hernia surgery can be just a pain the the ass. err groin. Its not just a cut and dry operation. Thats why they make you sign a release. Don't have any idea what the truth is. Just know that I've had so called routine surgeries that ended up costing me almost a year of my life and years later still effecting my life. Things can go really wrong.

Not sure what's up. Dreams of being raped by 29 virgins to wannabe gm's. I thought everyone here thought they could be GM's.

Not in anyway equating my two hernia surgeries to what Burton has gone thru. And I'm sure Im not the only one here who has been thru this. Can't even think about the forces that are required in any pro sports. Just very painful for the six months before and more than two month after I had my 2nd surgery as a mailman lifting twisting. Playing a sport that requires such torque and strength. Not happening.

Break out season. For this team to get to he top it has to be Trubisky Stats, probowl all pro, TD's interceptions, does not matter. The only thing that does is did he lead this team to a victory in the SB. Anything less is a failed season. One of the greatest QB's ever to play the game always had the tag. Did not win a Super Bowl. And he only made it too one. Thats the only metric we should measure anything. As great as the 85 team was I have always been just as disappointed that they never made it back let alone win again.
